Carbohydrates can be detected using iodine solution, which turns blue-black in the presence of starch. Lipids are identified through the grease spot test, where a sample leaves a translucent mark on paper, indicating fat presence. Proteins are detected using the Biuret test, where the solution changes to a violet color in the presence of peptide bonds. Each of these tests provides a simple way to identify the major macromolecules in food.
